Can I use real markers on my SMARTboard:

  • Yes, you can but they have to be HIGH-ODOR dry-erase markers - the ink from the low-odor dry erase markers is more difficult to remove.
  • Clean your whiteboard with a regular household glass cleaner.
  • DO NOT use permanent markers on your SMARTboard
